Sales and service processes will be greatly simplified for BERNINA retailers in the future thanks to our AI chatbot.
BERNINA, one of the leading suppliers in the sewing and embroidery machine industry, already relies on a dealer portal developed online for cooperation with more than 2000 dealers in over 100 countries. This B2B solution for sales, ordering, payment and service is now being supplemented with an AI chatbot.
The new AI chatbot “BERNINA Mate” provides BERNINA retailers with information about service, repairs, spare parts, sales and marketing. In addition to the usual text input, the chatbot can also be communicated with naturally via voice input.
The AI chatbot answers an operating question about a BERNINA 7 by not only providing the correct excerpt from the user manual, but also playing the explanatory video directly at the correct time stamp.
The AI chatbot quickly provides high-quality answers to questions about:
- Service & repair processes
- Sales & ordering processes
- Technical information
- Service Manuals
- Firmware updates
- User manuals
- Product information
- Documents for sales support
- Promotions
- Prices
- Training
- Marketing documents
The AI chatbot answers a question about repairing a bernette b44.

The AI chatbot helps a BERNINA dealer to find the latest firmware for a BERNINA 790 Pro. This facilitates the onboarding of new retailers.
